I'm not gonna lie the movie looks pretty sick. I like the sense of originality in the story....the world ends and THEN cannibalistic people start to take over rather than them being the reason for the end of the world. My one, single complaint is Charlize Theron. I can not stand that women at all!!! I don't like her movies or her acting ability. I thought she was done acting so she could join the UN anyways...what happened to that?
